    I know you\'re out there. I can feel you now. I know that you\'re afraid. You\'re afraid of us. You\'re afraid of change. I don\'t know the future. I didn\'t come here to tell you how this is going to end. I came here to tell you how it\'s going to begin. I\'m going to hang up this phone, and then I\'m going to show these people what you don\'t want them to see. I\'m going to show them a world without you, a world without rules and controls, without borders or boundaries. A world where anything is possible. Where we go from there is a choice I leave to you.

    Microsoft has now become two viruses; itself, and nimda.

    Microsoft accidentally sent the virulent Nimda worm
    We may think that MS accidentally sent it. But, we may also think that MS intentionally did it for some purpse. Afterall, we may never know.
    Listen closely to your enemies. They tell you your faults.
